Cumulative tow miles: 754. Truck miles: 176. Cumlative truck miles: 879.<\/p>\n<p>This hop, like the others on I-10 and I-12, was rough. There were some pretty long stretches that felt like we were riding on railroad ties. But it was also interesting. It skirted the northern shore of Lake Ponchetrain, with long bridges over swampland. This was much more interesting scenery than we had in Texas. And, somewhat surprisingly, the bridges were a smoother ride than the rest of the interstate.<\/p>\n<p>The navigation on this hop was a snap: get on I-10 until we reached MS 607, then follow the signs to the Silver Slipper Casino. Our destination was the casino&#8217;s RV park on the shore of the Gulf of Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Our two nights in Duson were spent at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lafayettervpark.com\/\">Frog City RV Park<\/a>, just off of I-10. This is a perfect location for an overnight stay. We stayed an extra night because I wanted to sample the local cuisine &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beststopinscott.com\/Cracklins.html\">cracklins<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beststopinscott.com\/Boudin.html\">boudin<\/a>. But the day was cloudy and unseasonably cold, so we didn&#8217;t go anywhere. I regret that as the boudin sounds delicious. I&#8217;m not so sure about the cracklins.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6042\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6042\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6042\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Frog City\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6042\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905a_HDR-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6042\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Frog City<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_6041\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6041\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6041\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Our site\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6041\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/1110170905_HDR-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6041\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our site<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>175 miles via I-10, I-12 and MS 607.
